Selected Aspects of Subjective Evaluation of Health Education by Elementary School Students in the Czech Republic
Original language description
Health education has been part of lower secondary education in the Czech Republic for a decade. It is included in the Framework educational programme for elementary education under the educational are Man and health. The purpose of Health education is to promote an active and responsible approach to health, shape adequate lifestyle habits, develop students’ health literacy, and take a formative role in the prevention of risk behaviour. The objective of the research study entitled ‘Health education from the perspective of elementary school students and teachers’ was to identify the perceptions of Health education (implemented curriculum) by students at the end of compulsory education. The research sample included 755 students in grade 9 from 23 elementary schools in 5 regions of the Czech Republic. The research was performed by means of a questionnaire in which the respondents evaluated various statements using numeric scales (1-10). The results suggest that Health education is popular among students and they look forward to Health education classes. As far as difficulty is concerned, the students believe that this educational field is one of the easier ones. In the implementation (teaching) of Health education, the students confirmed the application of activating teaching methods. A very positive finding is the students’ opinion concerning the significance of Health Education; the students expressed their agreement (coefficient 7.23) with the statement that ‘They can use the knowledge, skills and attitudes acquired in Health education in their personal life (now or in the future)’.
